Coming up: the #31 and #32 rush defenses


Rubes

Recommended Posts

San Fran is at #31, giving up an average of 146.8 yards per game on the ground.

 

Miami is at #32, giving up an average of 150.8 yards per game on the ground.

 

Those are yuuuuuge numbers, and it plays right into the Bills' strength.

 

Will they be able to take advantage?

We better make Tyrod throw for 300 yards. Otherwise a win won't count.

the other hot thread right now.... the one that says TT has played awful yesterday.

 

He did have a mediocre game yesterday. But no one made a comment about piling up yards or that the win didn't count.

Like everyone having a conniption over Taylor's passing number in winning games.

 

The conniption is about him missing wide open targets and losing his accuracy, not about piling up yards.

 

But it's very much unlike you to completely distort the point in order to slam Bills fans.

No, but a lot is being made about Taylor's passing stats in a game where the Rams D begged to be ran on.

Was that the game where Bills piled up most of their rushing yards in the first half, and then had a hard time with Rams' second half adjustments? Where they got 56 yards over 4 series, when the game was still very much in question and needed the QB to make a passing play?

The crazy part is in the recent past, our run game has suffered against the worst rush defenses. It is a real peculiar thing.

IMO the problem is when we lose and Taylor doesn't play well it is because he is just not a franchise QB. That may or may not be the case. But when we win and he doesn't play well it becomes winning like this is unsustainable. So unless he plays lights out, and has great stats, and we win, nothing is good enough, even when he makes extraordinary plays.

 

The time to criticize him is after a game we needed him to play well and hit more passes and we lost, like, say, the Ravens game. The time not to criticize him is when we score 30 points on the road on the west coast against a good defense and he throws two TDs and no turnovers and we win by 11 points. That is sustainable. If he does that every road game we win every road game. It's not about stats. I would trade no turnovers for 75-100 yards, easily.
